Val Kilmer, star of "Top Gun," "The Doors" and several other classic films, died Tuesday in Los Angeles, according to his family.

He had been diagnosed with a throat tumor back in 2014, and had to be rushed to UCLA Medical Center in 2015 to treat severe bleeding in his throat. The tumor was the result of oral cancer.
Val famously played the lead role of rock star Jim Morrison in the film about The Doors, and also starred as Bruce Wayne in "Batman Forever."

Atlanta police were on the hunt for the woman behind the 911 call surrounding Young Scooter’s death — and they promptly arrested her hours after she publicly identified herself!!!
On Tuesday afternoon, Demetria Spencer aka Demi Blanco was arrested by APD charged with Transmitting a False Public Alarm.
Demi owned up to making the 911 call on March 28 where she claimed to have witnessed a naked woman being beaten within an inch of her life … but officers encountered no such thing when they arrived on the scene.
They did, however, encounter 2 men — one of them being Scooter, who eventually tore an artery in his leg while hopping a wooden fence, according to his autopsy report.
On Instagram Live earlier today, Demi would go on to claim it that she was the one who was being battered, a complete 180° from her original statements.
The general public didn’t buy it and neither did cops … she’s since been processed and booked at Fulton County Jail.

Brendan was still in high school in Ohio at the time, having never even set foot in West Palm Beach in his life.
